Sky’s Living The Dream is to get a second season. The first season, which is still airing on Sky One in the UK, has proved to be a hit with viewers, so filming on a follow-up has been scheduled to start in spring 2018.

The first episode of Living the Dream attracted an audience of 830,000, making it the biggest launch of a comedy-drama on Sky One since 2012. The six-part series, currently airing on Thursday nights at 9pm, as well as on Catch Up TV, follows the Pembertons as they decide to leave rainy England

In an official press release, Sky has revealed that it has commissioned second seasons of Julia Stiles-led south of France crime series Riviera, as well as another run for Jack Whitehall’s Bounty Hunters. It also confirmed Gareth Evans’ Gangs Of London, which we reported news of yesterday and a total of 50 original series for broadcast in 2018.

24 of the 50 productions are returning shows, so says the broadcaster.

Following its phenomenal success earlier this year Sky’s best-performing original series to date, Riviera returns with Julia Stiles reprising the role of Georgina Clios for another high-octane series about the lives of the super-rich on the Côte d’Azur. Jack Whitehall’s comedy thriller Bounty Hunters is set to return for more action and adventure. And brand-new drama Gangs of London, a fresh and original gangland thriller, will take viewers on an adrenaline-fuelled journey into the hidden heart of the capital.

Audible’s Alien: River Of Pain expands the story of Aliens, giving us more Ripley and a deeper understanding of Hadley’ s Hope...

Alien: River Of Pain, the novel by Christopher Maggs, has been given a glossy audio drama adaptation by Dirk Maggs and the fine folks at Audible.

The story is set before and during the events of Aliens, offering further details about the Hadley’s Hope colony of Lv-426, what went wrong there, and how the decision was made to send Ripley, Burke, Bishop and the Colonial Marines to investigate.

A number of cast members from the film reprise their roles: William Hope as Lieutenant Gorman, Mac MacDonald as Colony Administrator Al Simpson, Stuart Milligan as the salvager that found Ripley drifting in deep space, and Alibe Parsons as Gateway Station’s med tech.

We got a taster of Audible’s new drama, Alien: River Of Pain. Here’s the new trailer and what we thought...

On a grey afternoon in Greenwich, I trundled through a park and struggled up an incline to reach London’s Royal Observatory. I was lured into this physical exertion by the promise of canapés, drinks and sneak peek at Alien: River Of Pain, a new Audible drama that will bridge the gap between Ridley Scott’s Alien and James Cameron’s Aliens.

After taking a second to catch my breath and immortalise the iconic London skyline with a half-arsed smartphone photo, I said my awkward hellos, stashed my belongings in a cloakroom and made my way into the event. As promised, bubbly was flowing and tiny nibbles were being circulated.

Before the xenomorphs return to the big screen to terrorize the Covenant crew this May, fans of the “Alien” franchise will get to revisit Lv-426 in Audible’s brand new audio dramatization “Alien: River of Pain.” The brand new multicast audio dramatization will be released on Alien Day, April 26.

The new audio drama, set between the first two films in the “Alien” franchise, tells the story of the doomed research and mining colony Hadley’s Hope, which was established on Lv-426 in 2157. Leading up to the events of James Cameron’s “Aliens,” “Alien: River of Pain” will focus on the events surrounding the rise and fall of the mining colony, as well as the birth and backstory of “Aliens” character Newt. The cast includes Anna Friel, Philip Glenister, Colin Salmon, Marc Warren, Michelle Ryan,

“People arguing over a bill - how the hell are you going to keep that going for half an hour without becoming boring?” asked Inside No. 9’s Steve Pemberton here. He and writing partner Reece Shearsmith know full well how; by performing their show’s best trick and twisting the quotidian into lurid, unusual shapes.

The intrigue as to who’s conning who in The Bill motors us through the half-hour—this is Inside No. 9 so we know something’s up—but there’s plenty to admire on the way to our destination. Before it becomes a blood-bath and then an episode of Hustle, The Bill works as an entertaining look at passive aggression and competitiveness.

Ace anthology series Inside No. 9 returns next week for its third run. Here’s what its creators had to say at the press launch…

Having made audiences wince at characters put through all manner of horrors—murder, suicide, demonic possession—sadism would seem a fair accusation to level at Inside No. 9’s creators. It doesn’t stand of course, because the show’s so good that it’s all pleasure and no pain. Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith don’t seek to make people suffer in writing the series. “I wouldn’t say that’s what we enjoy, we’re not sadists!” Pemberton laughs at the series three press launch. “For us, it’s all about the narrative and taking that half-hour we have for each episode and weaving the story that takes you on the biggest journey.”

Two women fight forces of evil on the mean streets of Britain in the new comedy horror from the maker of Misfits. He talks Twilight, zombie mermaids – and why all teens battle demons constantly

In the fast-moving world of television, zombies are very much “last season”. Currently it’s demons that are capturing the imagination of TV showrunners. This year alone we’ve been treated to hyper-violent comic-book adaptation Preacher, about a half-angelic, half-demonic man of the cloth battling evil forces in the deep South, and supernatural series Outcast, in which a drifter and a pastor exorcise possessed folk in rural America.

Both shows saw British actors in prominent roles (Dominic Cooper in Preacher, Philip Glenister in Outcast), but they were very much born in the USA, wrestling with those recurrent American themes of guns, god and free will. Now, though, comes a very British addition to the demon genre.
